“What we see depends mainly on what we look for.”
— John Lubbock
It could be said that an optimist sees the opportunity and the pessimist only the adversity.
Mindset ? Attitude? Perhaps, to some extent.
But it still and always will boil down to the choices one makes.
A different take on “what you see is what you get”. You can choose to see the challenges that lay before you through one set of eyes. Seeing only work. Time. Anxiety. Discomfort. Things that have to be overcome.
Or you can choose to see them as opportunities for effort. Commitment. Faith. Perseverance. Resources for the future. The valuable qualities you can obtain, practice and then work to perfect.
It will always come down to vision.
You can only look for – what you choose to see.
